MLS GW1 Tips – Fantasy Major League Soccer
MLS GW1 Tips – Fantasy Major League Soccer *NOTE* Game-week 1 starts Sunday at 1.30PM ET (USA), that’s 6.30PM in the UK. After many tense negotiations, FF247 has managed to secure Guy Sanchez (that’s me) for a second year of MLS fantasy advice columns. One of the major sticking points in the contract talks was the fact that Euro writers typically only put a single space after a sentence is completed – and the American style usually employs a double space. For American typists, it is almost impossible to teach the thumb to not double tap the spacebar after each sentence. But F...[Read More]

Fantasy Football FF247 Team Game-week 29
Fantasy Football FF247 Team Game-week 29 Well that went well….NOT! A total score of 28 points in GW28 may seem to some as irony, but to us at FF247 it has completely summed up our season. Rubbish. We couldn’t even beat an average of 35 and thus dropped 86k places to an overall rank of 906,635. Nothing has gone right and frankly none of us will be sad to wave this season farewell. Or piss off. GW28 in summary – this summary won’t take long, it’s painful to write and painful to read, unless you like a touch of self harm. The highlight of our score was two assists. Y...[Read More]
Team Talk Fantasy Football Game-week 29
Team Talk Fantasy Football Game-week 29 Allo, it’s me again! We’re getting far too familiar aren’t we?! It feels like we only spoke a couple of days ago…ah. It’s got so bad that my wife is accusing me of having an affair and is questioning me as to who this “Ben Dinnery character” is that I keep shouting to in my sleep. Anyway, we’re good to go for GW29 and we kick off with a blockbuster North London derby as Spurs host the Gooners at the Lane in a match that may well determine who is best equipped to challenge Leicester for the title. Six 3pm ma...[Read More]
Captain Picks Fantasy Football Game-week 29
Captain Picks Fantasy Football Game-week 29 – Fantasy Premier League 2015/16 Greetings from Australia, that remote safe haven from which to hide from the ravages of fantasy footballing war, the fires of which have descended yet again to destroy the hopes, dreams and aspirations of 3.6 million soldiers who year after year continue to fall, among other things, for the propaganda propagated by the likes of FF247, whose chiefs mercilessly conscript their sacrificial lambs, and thereafter confine them to the slaughterhouse of squad selection, captaincy picks, and chips, in the process destroy...[Read More]

It’s time to pick yourself a captain once again already! Tuesday night deadlines are always fun, but can also be dangerous: they provide a platform for some of the hastiest of last-minute decision! Many of us don’t even wake up on time to mess up our teams before 11:45am on a Saturday but –...[Read More]
